<PRE><B>Question 55845</B>
In a class of 16 students, each student has a different test score. The median test score is 84. What is the greatest number of students who scored higher than 84? 
----------
The median is the score BELOW WHICH 50% of the scores lie.
So there are 8 scores less than 84
Then there is a score of 84
So there are 16-8-1=7 scores above 84.

Cheers,
